[Verse 1]
Night vision on
Whole squad in the fog, hearts gone
HUD in my face, red marks on a ghost map
Future war, same blood in a cold trap
Exosuit strapped, chain on my chest plate
Orders in my ear, brass talk about "test faith"
Steel in my lungs, chrome in my rib cage
Heaven feels close when you live in a kill cage
Drill in my brain since a kid in the strip malls
Now it’s drones over homes when the shit falls
Motherfucker, I’m tired but I still run
Laser lines in the dark like a sick sun
[Chorus]
It’s that call of duty, can’t mute me
Every step feel heavy but it moves me
I been walking through hell for the unit
If I die, write my name in the ruins (yeah)
It’s that call of duty, don’t choose me
But the world keep breaking, it recruits me
If I bleed in the sand, then salute me
I go out like a motherfucking movie
[Verse 2]
Boots in the ash, past cities like grave sites
Billboards burnt, kids hiding from stray light
Target on my visor, heartbeat in my earpiece
Friendly on the left, got folded by a gear glitch
Fuck that, rage in my veins like a red tide
I see my brother go limp on the left side
Med kit jammed, steel shard in his neck line
Only prayer that he get is my war cry
"Fall back" in my ear, but I push in
If I make it to the tower, maybe he lives
Whole sky lit blue from the rail guns
I’m a speck on the deck, still I stay, son
[Chorus]
It’s that call of duty, can’t mute me
Every step feel heavy but it moves me
I been walking through hell for the unit
If I die, write my name in the ruins (yeah)
It’s that call of duty, don’t choose me
But the world keep breaking, it recruits me
If I bleed in the sand, then salute me
I go out like a motherfucking movie
[Bridge]
Alarm in my suit, vitals dropping
Blood on my visor, breath keep stopping
Det-pack armed, doors won’t open
Only way out is the bomb I’m holding
Tell the brass that I did what they asked for (yeah)
Tell my fam that I fought on the last floor
I ain’t scared, I’m just pissed that it ends here
But a hero ain’t shit till the end’s near
[Chorus]
It’s that call of duty, can’t mute me
Every step feel heavy but it moves me
I been walking through hell for the unit
If I die, write my name in the ruins (yeah)
It’s that call of duty, don’t choose me
But the world keep breaking, it recruits me
If I bleed in the sand, then salute me
I go out like a motherfucking movie
